During our
second purging session, we tackled jackets and coats. While I was in my coat
closet, I realized I had a bit of a scarf problem. Not that I had too many,
just that they weren’t stored or organized in the most effective way.

Initially,
I had them draped across a pant/skirt hanger which worked fine, for the most
part, but once I saw some white space in my closet after parting with some old coats, I
wanted more...more white space! The scarves hanging on the hanger took up too much space so I needed
something different.

I am a big
fan of those command hooks {like these}. In fact, I already have two hanging in my coat
closet and I have them scattered throughout the house. I probably have at least
one in every room. At first, I thought another command hook could do the trick,
but reality quickly set in. I definitely needed a hook, but I needed something
bigger…something deep enough to hold many scarves that I could attach to the
wall. I did a quick google search {because that’s what you do when you’re in
doubt about something} and came across this great blog that talks about using
drape tie backs as hooks for organizing scarves and such. BINGO! Off to Target I went.

Originally,
I was going to get a standard coat hook because it seemed long enough to hold scarves,
but ultimately I decided to get these curtain tie back hooks. I wasn’t quite
ready or willing to drill into my wall so I knew I needed some command strips
to keep the hooks in place. I don’t mind the white backing of the strip
showing, as long as my scarves are nice and neat and easy to get to.

I think this is a great idea.......I am more of a color coordinated person....so you could even organize your scarves based on that or even patterns versus solid colors.....I actually just have my scarves stuffed in a few different drawers...so I will use your tip and try to get more organized
